Chapter 786: Inhumanity

Anyone who can achieve success should not be underestimated, even if Mansour's success is inseparable from his background identity.

In fact, from the difference in status between Mansour and Saleh, it can be seen that Mansour’s ability is definitely higher than that of Saleh, otherwise the chiefs of Abu Dhabi will not be in charge of the consortium. Mansour.

Ronan has dealt with Mansour many times. The deepest influence that this person left on him is not the trenches of the Arabs, but the temperament of winning without arrogance and defeat.

This person is particularly resilient.

Think about it, the attitude of the Western society towards the Arab world should not be too obvious. As Abu Dhabi’s spokesperson in the Western world, Mansour would be easily defeated, and there would be no such successful investment by the Abu Dhabi consortium.

In recent years, even in the United States, the Abu Dhabi consortium has made a difference, winning two teams from the four major sports professional leagues.

Perhaps, this is nothing for a wealthy consortium of hundreds of billions, but the prefix with an Arab is very valuable.

Although Ronan gave up his cooperation with the Abu Dhabi consortium because of social trends and the other's ambitions, he did not want to become an enemy with the Abu Dhabi consortium when possible.

"Mr. Minister." Ronan maintained the polite smile his master must have: "If you have anything to say, please."

Mansour has been in the Western world for many years and seems to have learned to express it more directly: "Mr. Anderson, I still have a strong interest in Manchester United. To be precise, since last night, I have become more interested in Manchester United."

Ronan roughly guessed what he was going to say.

Sure enough, Mansour said: "For you and me, Manchester United is always a business and an investment. Today, your investment is a big success. Mr. Anderson, the Abu Dhabi consortium is willing to pay 1 billion pounds from You buy Manchester United Club."

The price is quite attractive. Ronan used financing to acquire the Manchester United club. The total cost was just over 600 million US dollars. This is a nearly 40% return on investment.

Mansour saw Ronan not talking, and continued to add weight: "All the debts of Manchester United will be taken care of by the Abu Dhabi consortium after the completion of the acquisition."

Ronan looked at Mansour, and he was indeed a rich and oily Arab, and he was so inhumane.

In Mansour’s words, the debts that Ronan passed on to Manchester United after the acquisition of Manchester United were all returned by the Abu Dhabi consortium. Except for a small amount of personal investment, if this transaction really can be achieved, Ronan will be at Manchester United. All the above will become a model of the empty glove white wolf!

In one year, the profit of 780 million U.S. dollars, arms sales and the like, did not make such money.

Mansour knows very well that when money accumulates to a certain extent, it is not only a number game, but also controls people's hearts.

Manchester United, especially now this well-structured, vigorous and energetic Manchester United team, he really wants it, and is willing to pay a certain price for it.

Ronan stabilized his mind and said with a smile: "Mr. Minister, I can feel your sincerity, please allow me to think about it."

After all, Ronan did not exceed the scope of a normal person. In addition, he was originally a businessman. Because of the businessman's nature, such a high investment profit could not be unmoved.

Mansour shook hands with Ronan: "I hope Mr. Anderson can seriously consider it. My words will remain valid until the beginning of next season."

Ronan shrugged slightly: "I also need to discuss with other shareholders."

After the two exchanged a few words, Mansour left and Salih glanced at Ronan, but finally did not say anything, and followed Mansour.

"There are many teams in the Premier League." Saleh whispered: "We are not Manchester United."

Mansour glanced at his close brother, and said patiently: "Why do we want to buy a football team, Saleh, have you thought about it?"

Saleh said, "Isn't it for making money?"

Mansour shook his head slightly: "Football is the world's largest sport, and the Premier League is the league with the best commercial operation and spread. We need a window, a window for the whole world to know and understand Abu Dhabi, so I Has been planning to acquire the Premier League team."

With rare patience, he said to Saleh: "It is decided that we must acquire a super team with sufficient influence. Although this will cost more money, it will yield the fastest results. For a small and medium-sized team, we need to build it into a well-known team, how much time will it take, how many players need to be purchased, and we need to invite well-known coaches..."

Saleh nodded slowly, and understood what his brother was thinking.

Mansour looks at the problem far more thorough than the average person: "In that case, we will not spend less than buying Manchester United from Ronan Anderson, and may even be higher. In addition, there is also a time cost, which is impossible to measure by money. of!"

"I see." Saleh said.

Mansour patted his shoulder lightly: "Throughout the entire Premier League, in fact, only Manchester United and Arsenal can meet our requirements, but Manchester United is better. I am also under pressure and need to spend a lot of money as soon as possible. See the effect, otherwise how to explain to Abu Dhabi?"

After all, he is just the chief operating officer of the Abu Dhabi consortium, not the real owner.

Saleh said: "It is very difficult to acquire Manchester United, Ronan Anderson is too complicated."

Mansour shook his head slightly: "His mind is very complicated, yes, but from another aspect, Ronan Anderson's mind is also very simple. After all, he is a businessman. Football is just a commercial speculation. As long as the profits are high enough..."

He laughed suddenly: "As long as you can win Manchester United, it will be worth more than £1 billion."

The Abu Dhabi consortium lacks everything except money.

A problem that can be solved with money has never been a problem in the eyes of Mansour.

At the cocktail party, Ronan was coping with communication while considering the pros and cons of Mansour’s proposal.

From an investment perspective, this is really a very cost-effective deal.

To be honest, Ronan also needs funds at this stage to realize more plans.

But selling Manchester United at this point was a bit unwilling.

Faced with this choice, most people may choose to sell directly, but Ronan’s wealth also gives him the confidence to refuse. After all, this year he may become a man with a wealth of literally tens of billions.

After the cocktail party, Ronan found Will Smith and Tom Cruise, and briefly communicated with them.

The two people were also a little excited after listening.

After all, how can such a high investment profit be unmoved.

But they are not ordinary people after all, and they belong to the top class with a net worth of over 100 million in Hollywood.

After Ronan briefly introduced the relevant situation, Will Smith gradually calmed down and said: "I listen to you in terms of investment. Ronan, if you want to sell, I support you and want to continue to be the boss of Manchester United. I am willing, football is actually quite interesting."

Tom Cruise said: "From an investment point of view, the sale is indeed very cost-effective, but we are not short of money at the moment. With the development momentum of Manchester United, it may be more valuable in the future."

Ronan nodded slightly and said, "Well, let's not rush to reply to Mansour, but consider it for a while, and wait until July."

He emphatically warned: "The news is limited to the three of us, and it should not affect the normal long-distance transfer of the club."

"Understood." Will Smith said, "Don't worry."

Tom Cruise worried: "Where is Mansour? What if he takes the initiative to speak to the media..."

Ronan said directly: "Then we will reject him publicly, presumably he will not make such an unwise choice."

Regardless of Ronan, Will Smith and Tom Cruise, it takes time to calm down the impulse caused by huge financial gains and consider this issue in a more peaceful mind.

involves a transaction of billions of pounds, and Ronan can't help being careless, and thinking about it for a while, it doesn't hurt.

This news did not spread, and naturally it will not affect the normal operation of Manchester United. Manchester United ended the journey of a season from 2004 to 2005 with the outstanding performance of the Premier League and the Champions League.

Later, Ronan signed new sponsorship contracts with multiple sponsors on behalf of Manchester United. These sponsorship contracts alone can bring Manchester United more than 100 million pounds in revenue each year.

Ronan does not need to invest any money in Manchester United. Manchester United's own hematopoietic ability can not only meet the needs of signings, but also repay debts.

In the first week of the end of the Champions League, Manchester United reached an agreement with Real Madrid. Van Nistelrooy transferred to the Real Madrid club for 35 million euros.

This money will be managed by Manchester United for digging the corner of Barcelona.

Professional football circles are becoming increasingly commercialized. As long as the money **** is swayed well, it is difficult to have a wall that will not be dug down.

A few years ago, as the captain and flag of Barcelona, ​​Luis Figo how did he get to his rival Real Madrid?

In the future, clubs like Manchester United and Liverpool that do not have any direct player transfers will become increasingly rare.

At the end of a Manchester United season, Ronan, Will Smith and Tom Cruise convened two meetings with the club’s top leaders and left London and returned to Los Angeles.

The summer season of the North American film market is in full swing, with major production movies being released one after another.

Among them, there are many successful works like "The Bournemouth 3" and "Revenge of the Sith", and there are also works such as "Heavenly Kings" and "Escape from the Island of Clone" that have failed commercially.

The directors of these two failed works were supported by relatively strong capital in the past, but it is not very sad.

A 20th-century Fox producer became the backer of "The Kingdom of Heaven". Ridley Scott was not affected much and continued to prepare for new works.

DreamWorks suspended its cooperation with Michael Bay, but Shahai Entertainment has already contacted Michael Bay.
